Today my 5 year old child touched the cow's baby which roam on roadside as a matter of play, a day before my child got minute cut by knife on his palm. Although cow baby seems healthy. Does it is a concern for rabies infection?

No cow is not a rabid animal. cow dung may contain tetanus spores but since your child is 5 years old he must be vaccinated fully so no need of tetanus even. Thank you
